Geodaejangeo is a general Korean restaurant located in Oseong-myeon, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, specializing in eel and offering fresh, domestically sourced freshwater eels at reasonable prices. Starting under the name Baekdu Fisheries, it expanded and relocated to a large-scale facility, establishing itself as a representative local eel restaurant.

Based on her in-laws' more than 50 years of eel farming experience, CEO Seong Young-hee launched Geodaejang-eo with the philosophy of selling fresh, self-raised eels honestly and affordably. Expanding from an initial 50-pyeong (approx. 165 sq ft) facility to a large 740-pyeong (approx. 2,440 sq ft) store, the company provides customers with an even more comfortable dining experience. By directly sourcing 100% domestically raised Japonica eels from its own farm and minimizing distribution channels, the company ensures both freshness and price competitiveness.

💡 A word from Jobploy
As Geodaejangeo is a large-scale eel specialty restaurant, roles in hall serving and kitchen assistance require customer interaction, food preparation, and collaboration with serving robots. Since the spacious venue may involve a high level of physical activity, physical stamina and a positive attitude are required. As you will be handling fresh eels supplied from our own farm, this can be a great opportunity to understand and learn about Korea's culture of health-boosting cuisine.
